random trivia
In the first 3 weeks of selling Wispa bars at the end of September 07, A Quarter Of sold 12,000 bars… even though for the first 2 weeks we had to restrict each customer to 1 order (5 bars)! It was a Wispa FRENZY!

Thanks Again !!
Hello, Just a wee note to say a big thank you for the very swift service!

The chocolate coins are exactly what I`m looking for, and the pirate tag on each wee pouch was a bonus!

I`ll definately recommend your site to family and friends.

Thanks again,

Linda

go jeanette!
We've just found out that one of our customers is competing at the Olympics!

Jeanette Kwakye, the British 100m champ no less, stocked up with her favourites from A Quarter Of... before she headed off east.
How cool is that?

Mint Humbugs - Mmmm. . . I wonder if there's any connection between Scrooge's humbug, and our lip-smackingly delicious minty sweets? Mmm. . .ok. . .maybe not.

Anyway, these lovely sweets are as traditional as you can get. Aaaaah, the lovely brown stripes will really take you back. . ...

The Independent listed us as the 2nd best e-boutique on the web…and no, it wasn’t alphabetical. We were totally over the moon!
whatever happened to texan bars?

Remember the advert on TV? A Clint Eastwood style cowboy in a spot of bother, captured by some sombrero wearing outlaws. One asks the cowboy, "A last request gringo?"

The cowboy asks for a Texan bar. He chews on it laconically (love that word!) and it takes him so long to eat it that the baddies fall asleep and he escapes!

texan bars

"Texan... sure is a mighty chew."

Texans made a very brief, limited edition re-appearance in 2005 but we fear they have now gone for good.

you know you're a
child of the 80s when..

The words "Banana Splits" make you start singing (in your mind of course!)
